THE Senate neIi winter will stand 39 including Riddleberger, and 37 Democrats It will thus be seen that if Riddleberger votes with the Dem ocrstes he can tie any question coming before the Senate. This privilege, be says. he will use with ss much fre- quency as to leave his republican ssso- cistes in 8 state of nervous expectancy regarding his actions. He will not do this, he says, because of his love for the Democrats, but simply to retsliste upon the Republicans. the majority of whom he contends have treated him with scsnt respect, ss the entire body ot
 Democrats have. Riddleberger, accord ing to his own sdmission, is the more
 moved to this course by reason of the
 fact that he expects to close his senator

PRESCOTT papers are in a psroxisms of pain over the proposed stocking of the Verde military reservation with do- mesticsted Apsches from the govern Dent breeding pen at Ban Carlos. Kick, old fellows, squirm ss much as you please. but the people of Southern Ari- zons would like to see the change ID question made, and in doing SO endorse both General Miles and bis policy, not withstandIng the people of Prescott snd Governor Zulick's disspprobstion. The The wrath of the Courier and Journal Miner over the recent killing of W. B. Horton, can only be measured by their deep and poignant grief over the loss of military headquarters and the reduc- ton of Camp Whipple to 6 third class military station. Mr. Horton was well known snd generally loved throughout Southern Arizona, and 1t is but natural that the people with whom he was ss- socisted should mourn his untimsly taking of. but why these crocodile tears from our far out of the way capital, Pres oottY During our most trying times, when Geronimo & Go. were rsiding and devastating Southern Arizons, when tirebrspd and blood marked hls foot. prints, and eItermInstion followed ID his wake, less comment was provoked and less sympathy expressed by them than the killing of one man TOW does. The reasons for this great change of heart can be found in the recent order Of General Miles, looking towards the colonizing of red devils on the Camp Verde military reservation. A thou sand times we have advocated the en- tire removal of the Apscbes from the territory and hope yet to see this end ac. complished. but in the meantime, let us divide the responsibility of their keep. ing. With the best of teeliog in the world for the people in the north. we cannot see why they shall not bear their share of this burden in com mon with others. Apsohes are not, we confess, the most desirable neiehbors in the world, and that is the reason why we would get rid of them. But General Miles policy IS to divide them up and make honors essy-heuee his unsnI- nous endorsement by the people oi southern and southeastern Arizona.

INQUIRY has been made from Cslifor- nis as to the actual amount of ir gable land in Pims oounty-thst is lard sus- ceptible of irrigation by dams. reser- voirs, ditches and srtesisn wells. These lands, without going into sctusl meas ment, have been variously spproIimstsd, the average being about 1.2S0 900 acres While these figures may not be msthe- mstically correct they certsinly are near enough for all practical purposes. A birds eye view of Southern Arizona would resemble great plain with mountains dotted down upon it at ir, regular intervals. These mountains ss 8 rule, are proverbially rugged, being generally rift and rent by immense can' yons that debouch On the plains below and thus offer at comparatively small cost, one of the best water storage sys terns in the world. Throughout tho rainy season these canyons become nv CTS and water sufficient to irrigste an al most incredible quantity of land, runs tC waste.

This i not idle talk. however much to the un informed it may seem. They will pro duce fruit. grain or vegetables in pro life abundance. All that we or tine pec pie of Southern Arizona ask is that thes things be conscientiously inquired int and it will be found that half the truth C our wonderful resources hes oot yet bee half told.

HE following paragraph ID the plat form of the Republican party in New York, is good enough to tie to: We adhere firmly to the American policy Jun der whose operation unexsmpled pros- parity and thrift have blessed the land, and hold that any changes to be made in the tariff laws should be made by the friends of those laws, and the interest of protection of labor on our own soil and O. hone markets, not by or in the inter est of free trade propagsndists nor for the benefit of foreign producers and for eisu labor. National taxation should be So adjusted as to raise revenue sufficient for an economic and wise administration II the government, for the payment of the public debt, for the development of national resources, and for national de- fense: but any reduction should be so made as not to impair the prosperity of home industries. American markets must be preserved to the products of Ameriosn labor and capital, and pro- tected from foreign encroachments."

John Gilman Indignant.

Two or three days ago John Gilman
put man to work blowing on his
land for grade for his proposed rail
way between Haley and Gilman. He
wished to run his pillow through the
Lamb and Pinney ranches, but was
warned to do SO at his peril. So he
came into town, consulted his attor-
ney, and then triumphantly informed
the TINES man that he would take
measures to secure the right of way
in spite Of the objectors, as there is a
law IN Idaho which provides for OBJ
tainlng right of way for improvements
upon the assessment and payment Of
damages!

orally out of sorts, and want to brace up.
Brace up, but not with stimulants, spring

their basis very cheap, bad whisky, and
which stimulate you for an hour, and
then leave you in worse condition than
before. What you want is an Alternative

Lucky Bar.

w. F. Masters, chief engineer of
the Lucky Bar Placer Mining Com
pany, came up from Glenn's Ferry
yesterday, the works having been
shut down temporarily, owing to high
water. No damage has been done to
the ground or works; but as the con-
slant running of the heavy pump un-
der water threatened to loosen its
foundation, it was deemed best to
shut down until the water receded.
In the meantime piles have been
driven in front of the works, a sub
stantial dam built to keep the water
in the old channel, and the few men
retained are washing gravel with
rockers. Mr.. Masters left to-day for
the King of the West mine, to figure
on a water-wheel.

THE JUNCTION COMPANY.
1t Lets a Contract to Sink the First
Really First-Ciass Double. C0mpart.
ment Incline.Shaft In this Region.

Superintendent Taylor. of the juno
ton Mining Company, on the Gold
Belt, let a contract, to-day, for sink
ing frst-ciass double compartment
incline-shaft on the Junction claim.
The shaft is to be 6x11 feet in the
clear, and to be solidly timbered with
lOx12 timbers, squared on three sides;
it is also to be Jagged from top to
bottom, and the compartments are to
be four feet square, ia the clear, each.
The contract was let to sink to a
depth of IS feet, the company intend
ing to drift at the 5O-foot level, and
crosscut from that drift, at various
points. If the appearance of the
vein justifies it, the shaft will then be
continued to the 500, foot level, levels
being opened every so feet.
This will be the frs. frst-class
double compartment shaft in this re-
gion; and unless the TIMES is much
mistaken the letting of the contract
marks new era in mining in this re-
gion. From this time on the work
done will be of much moro perma.
nent character than heretofore.
The Junction Company goes to
work with $4,000 worth of it's stock
subscribed for.

A CAPITALIST In LUCK.

property Secured for a ssSOng'' Will
Net Him Many Millions Of Dollars
The Old COmstock Lode Tailipgs to
be Worked Over.
"Joe" Douglass, the Nevada capt.
talist who visited Wood River in its
early days, and offered $4,000 for
the Minnie Moore mine when there
had been only few days work done
upon it, will soon rank with the bo-
nanza kings who have made their ten
and twenty millions of dollars on the
Comstock.
MIR. Douglass is stock broker, and
about the only one of the old guard
of bankers still doing business on the
old lode, the Others having long since
either retired with their millions, or
failed, or died. From the FIRST settle.
ment of the Comstock the tailinps
from the mills have been allowed to
flow down Gold and Six and Seven
mile canyons to the Carson river
valley, where they were deposited in
huge banks or bars, to be scattered
in every direction by the wind. After
a while all the land adjacent to the
river was covered with dry tailings to
a thickness of several inches. The
ranchers complained of this, where.
upon Mr.. Douglass took up block of
desert land to which all the flow of
tailings was diverted. By keeping
one man there, with shovel, to look
after the banks, q "slum-pond," prob.
ably one mile square and Is to 25
feet high, was soon formed. This
was then considered valueless, and
the mining companies gladly allowed
MIR. Douglass to thus dispose of their
tailings free of charge. But while
this was accommodating Mr.. Douglass
kept looking out for process to ex.
tract the precious metals from that
mass of waste, and finally met with
DR.. Rae, an electrician, whom he put
in his tailings mill at Dayton to ex-
pertinent. The result has been the
perfection of process that works the
tailings at slight cost. A narrow
gauge railway has been built to the
SUM pond, to haul the tailings to Mr..
Douglass's mill, gang of rs to 100
men are employed, and Mr.. Douglass
has on a paying basis an enterprise
that will! net him many millions of
dollars.
When it is remembered that for
over rs years from 10 to 60 per cent.
of the precious metals contained in
ore from which over $3OO,OOO,OOO
worth of gold and silver was extract
ed, has been permitted to 60 to waste,
the possibilities of this enterprise of
Mr. Douglass will be readily admitted
to he so great as to almost border Oh
the region where fact ceases to rule
and fiction begins to reign.
